Goodrich 8th Grade Transition Celebration 2026

Goodrich Middle School is a diverse, Title 1 school aimed at building thoughtful, invested, cooperative, and kind students. This year we are seeking to celebrate those traits in our almost 300 8th graders through high school transition festivities. This transition event would allow us to recognize the hard work our students have put into their middle school careers and strengthen our relationships with the Goodrich community. Likewise, this event would help emphasize the importance of graduation and instill pride in the work it takes to achieve it, a lesson we hope to leave them with as they begin their high school careers.
Your donations will allow us to host our “8th Grade Farewell Celebration” for our 8th graders and their families, including the purchase of treats, individualized postcards, and event decorations. Likewise, these funds would allow us to purchase pizza as a prize for the winning 8th grade team’s last week of school competition where students can commemorate their time at Goodrich with friends. Requesting $350 plus cost reimbursement. Thank you for your consideration in helping make this milestone memorable for our Dragons!

We'd like to extend a huge thank you to all who helped us reach our goal! Your generous donations allowed us to host a celebration our students will remember for years. Students were able to invite their families to celebrate their middle school accomplishments and involvements and enjoy treats with their families. This day has helped acknowledge all of the hard work students have put in throughout the year, and has emphasized the grit and pride associated with school transitions as they prepare to move on to high school.

Thank you so much!
